16
Q

whats more soluble out of CO2 and O2?

17
Q

what is the diffusion capacity?

A

ability of gas to travel across alveoli

18
Q

what is the arterial oxygen conc?

A

amount bound to heamoglobin and dissolved in the plasma

19
Q

formation of haemoglobin?

A

Haemoglobin has 3D shape there are 2 alpha and 2 beta chains, with a heam group and 2 porphyry rings

20
Q

what state is iron in in haemoglobin?

21
Q

what causes the oxygen dissociation curve to shift to the right?

A

increased hydrogenn ions
increased CO2
increased temperature
increased BPG

22
Q

what is the right hand shift called?

A

Bohr shift

23
Q

what different about foetal haemoglobin?

A

gamma chains instead of beta

24
Q

what happens to the oxygen dissociation curve with fetal haemoglobin?

A

shifts to the left as there is a higher affinity

25
Q

what forms when carbon dioxide binds to haemoglobin?

A

carbamino haemoglobin

26
Q

ways of carbon dioxide transport?

A

bound to haemoblobin
dissolved in plasma
bicarbonate

27
Q

what acts as a buffer for hydrogen ions?

A

deoxyhaemoglobin

28
Q

what happens with hyperventilation?

A

low CO2
hypocapnia
alkaline blood

29
Q

hypoventilation?

A

high CO2
hypercapnia
acidic blood

30
Q

in diabetic ketoacidosis what happens to the blood?

A

acidic blood

31
Q

what does renal failure result in?

32
Q

what happens if you take lots of antacids?

33
Q

what is buffering of the blood done by?
